Can a resigned Catholic priest marry?
A priest who resigns is considered to have resigned from the Church itself and is no longer considered as a Catholic. Since he is no longer Catholic he is free to do as he pleases. However, a priest can remain in the Church as a Catholic if he is laicized. To be laicized the bishop of the diocese would have to declare the priest's Holy Orders as null and void. In other words, he would no longer be a priest. He, too, would be free to marry but would still be considered a Catholic.
